Pros Cons of KTM RC 390

Pros

  • Sharply styled
  • High on performance & handling
  • Extremely value-friendly

Cons

  • Polarising new design
  • Finish could be better
  • Too compact for taller riders

Verdict

The next-generation KTM RC 390 has become more accessible and friendlier so even if you’re upgrading from a smaller bike, the new KTM RC 390 is comfortable to ride. With the new updates, it has become a bike that is more suited for everyday use, and for a minority of users who want to cut their teeth on a racetrack, it still offers a capable and potent track tool. Prices though have gone up by ₹ 36,000, it still makes a very strong case as a performance-oriented and well-equipped sports bike.

Pros Cons Honda CBR 1000RR

Pros

  • Great design
  • Great performance
  • Lots of features

Cons

  • Expensive
  • Service & Availability
  • Not very practical

Verdict

The Honda CBR1000RR is a premium litre class superbike with exceptional performance and features. It is a legacy sportbike with a rich history and is one of the best litre class superbikes that you can buy in India today. But at the same time, it is priced upwards of Rs. 30 lakh (on-road) and is available only through bigwing Honda dealerships. It makes sense to buy one only if you hit a racetrack regularly or have deep pockets
